In addition to this forum, DG provides you with many ways to learn more about herbs, find sources, and share what you know with others. This thread is intended to help you explore those features and provide a permanent reference tool with helpful links and shortcuts.

Getting the most from PlantFiles

PlantFiles has hundreds of herb entries and tons of information - here are some tips to track down what you're looking for:

1) The Advanced Search lets you find the herbs that meet your specifications (heigt, bloom color, hardiness, aromatic foliage, sun/shade requirements, etc.) Just select "herbs" from the first section, then specify your other criteria [HYPERLINK@davesgarden.com] (Note: You can - and should - skip past any detail sections that you don't care about.)

2) Here are some general search and browse tips that may be helpful: [HYPERLINK@davesgarden.com]

If we've missed a species or cultivar, here's a link to add a new entry: [HYPERLINK@davesgarden.com]

Within any entry (one you added, or existing entries), you can add your own comment, photo and/or ZIP code report if it grows well in your garden! The screen shot below shows you where to look for the ZIP code field; the links to add an image or comment are directly beneath that field.
